05 Dec Carouçel in the Haus der Niederlande in Münster

The exhibition ‘Veterans Without Borders, Mission Experiences Reflected in Art’ opened last night in the Haus der Niederlande in Münster. All exhibited works of art were made by Dutch veterans after their deployment in, for example, Afghanistan or Kosovo.

The exhibition opens.

“When the war is over, it will continue for the veteran,” explains chairman of the Veterans Art Foundation Pauline Kolman-Backbier. “They bring the fight home with them. Every veteran wants peace and tranquility. Some find it in art.”

Speeches and discussions

During the exhibition, the corps also holds 2 theme nights: ‘The Art of Coping’ and ‘The Veteran of the Future’. Academics, veterans and politicians then come together for speeches and discussions.

The exhibition is open to the public between November 30 2018 and January 25 2019 and is free to enter on weekdays between 12:00 PM and 6:00 PM and on weekends from 10:00 AM to 4:00 PM. The Haus der Niederlande is located at Altersteinweg 6/7 in Münster, Germany.
